The Victorian Ornithological Research Group (VORG) is a small project-focused ornithological group of amateurs and professionals based in Victoria, Australia. It was formed in 1962. It publishes a bulletin, VORG Notes. The objectives of the group are to:

  • field studies
  • participation in the Australian Bird and Bat Banding Scheme
  • cooperation with the National Parks and Wildlife Division of the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources or its equivalent for the time being
• encourage and assist in the publication of the results of such work
• provide a meeting place for discussion groups, the reading of papers and social activities
• make provision for the retention of field records, diaries and other relevant documents
• cooperate with persons or organisations having interests similar to those of VORG
• coordinate the activities of groups engaged in work consistent with the above objects

Current projects include
